Thanks guys! Very reassuring indeed.
Therefore the barrier to entry is very high since competitors would need to build the technology from scratch (2-3 years), undergo many studies to prove that the tech actually works (1-2 years) and attempt to seek regulatory approvals with too many uncertainties (another 1-2 years). By the time they reach commercial phase, PCK would've already captured majority of the market share. And yes a US patent that give PCK exclusively rights to exclude others from making, using, selling or importing the invention for 20 years from the filing date in the United States. A barrier to enter the US market would put off anyone from attempting to re-create a model like PCK.

Fortunately, PCK have reached all these milestones and we have a proven-technology with great attention from massive co such as Phillips, GE, Siemens and their partners. Good times ahead for all PCK holders!
